Life Support
Site rules apply.
The main aim of the Life Support community is to help ourselves and each other with evidence-based knowledge. A second aim is having a group that will be sympathetic to people’s questions and situations, if these arise, without trespassing on privacy. It is not meant to be an Agony Aunt column.
Topics can include:
-
ways to look after health at different stages of life
-
family interactions, triumphs and challenges
-
people who are on their own and their triumphs and challenges
-
children and education
-
technology in people’s lives: effects, coping and solutions
-
money, housing, and work issues
-
identity, e.g. race, gender and sexuality
-
where to find support and what alternatives there might be
The Life Support community takes the form of:
-
plain, useful information about topics and where to find practical help
-
sharing articles about health and social issues and how they affect people personally
-
sharing experiences or questions and asking others to respond with suggestions or examples from their lived experience
It will always be a work in progress depending on what people bring to the community, so don’t be shy. If we have a genuine interest or question and we are respectful we can give this experiment a whirl.
